Conditional Formatting of Button Tooltips
Hi, On the buttons used for Page navigation there is an option to condinally format the tooltip. I am looking for a way to dynamically show a tooltip on each button to indicate which Page it's going to navigate to, but not quite able to figure out how to assign Page name using DAX. I have created a DAX datatable with Index and names of report pages. I want to achieve something like this in the measure used by the button tooltip:
Is something like this possible?
Hi, Anonymous
I don't understand what the dynamic you want is. First of all, the page name can't be automatically displayed by any dax function, you must name it directly if you want to use it.
Secondly, if you use the button to jump to other pages, isn't it fixed? Why do you need dynamic?

Anonymous , If should be selectedpage name
Report Page Button Tooltip =
SWITCH(selectedvalues(Page[PageName]) ,
"Report Page 1", "Now showing Report Page 1...",
"Report Page 2", "Now showing Report Page 2...",
""
)Same formula that you use in action, you should use in the tooltip
refer if needed
Display only one page in the report, Hide rest: https://youtu.be/d4H0GKUH0r4
Thanks amitchandak for quick reply. I am wondering however that how to do conditional navigation first of the pages using Report Page name? I have a datatable like this. Typically you would use some rules based on the data or in the past I have used USERNAME() function to restrict the page navigation for certain users. In this case however, I am bit lost as to how first achieve dynamic page navigation using page names, (and then I guess the same logic will apply to button tooltips)? I have added buttons with Text on them as "1", "2", "3" and so on...
Page_Datatable = DATATABLE ( "Sr No", INTEGER, "Report Page", STRING, { { 1, "Report Page 1" }, { 2, "Report Page 2" } } )

Hi v-janeyg-msft I think you said it right "First of all, the page name can't be automatically displayed by any dax function,". May be what I think is not possible. Thanks for the replies.
